imal and minor. It is hoped that the style file will be converged to the final form
rapidly. Nevertheless, there are specific issues which are on the “table” and they
are described herein.
At this stage, several chapters are missing. The effects of the deviations
from the ideal gas model on the properties should be included. Further topics
related to non-ideal gas such as steam and various freons are in the process of
being added to this book especially in relationship to Fanno flow.
One of the virtue of this book lay in the fact that it contains a software that
is extensible. For example, the Fanno module can be extended to include effects
of real gases. This part will be incorporated in the future hopefully with the help of
others.
Specific missing parts from every chapters are discussed below. These
